Congratulations to the Grant for winning NZDC, the first player to hold both
the Australian and NZ Championship at the same time in the same year. The
Steam Roller is back! This tournament was dominated by RT with 14/14 in
round 1, and 12/11 in round 2 (with A on 11) and finally a 12/11 again in
round 3. That is 73 % of all centers! The Western Super powers could only
manage 9 centres for the whole tournament that is 9% of all centers, with
the highest score of 3 centers.
